I have this theory that if one person can go out of their way to show compassion, then it will start a chain reaction of the same.

-Rachel Joy Scott

Rachel's Story

Rachel, a high school student who was the first victim of the Columbine shooting, changed the world. Rachel had two brothers and two sisters. The sisters, Dana and Bethanee Scott, and the brothers, Craig and Mike Scott. Her parents were Darrell and Beth Scott. Rachel impacted the world using her kindness and compassion.

After the shooting, police investigators found the backpack she was wearing when she was shot. They used it for evidence for awhile, but soon gave it back to Rachel's father. When her father looked inside her backpack, there was a journal. The things that were in Rachel's journal were unbelievable. Inside her journal were multiple inspiring quotes. One of her most famous quotes was, "I have this theory that if one person can go out of their way to show compassion, then it will start a chain reaction of the same. People will never know far a little kindness can go."
